Instructions

Step 1: Unplug, then power down Samsung Galaxy S8. Remove the SIM and SD cards.

Step 2: Using blow dryer, apply low heat around edges of back panel to soften adhesive. May take several minutes.

Step 3: When back is warm to the touch, press suction cup to the panel as close to the edge without going over the curve.

Step 4: Gently lift suction cup, and along the side of the phone, insert the opening pick between glass and back panel. (Tip: Adhesive is thinner along the sides.)

Step 5: Keep opening pick in place. Insert spudger on the side of the phone and slowly slide the blade down the length of the phone. Use the blow dryer again on low heat. Do not blow directly into the seam. Insert a pick or the edge of a credit card into the seam on each side.

Step 6: Slowly pry phone open about 35 degrees, until fingerprint sensor cable that connects to the rear glass near the main camera releases. If necessary, use point of spudger or tip of tweezers to disconnect it.
